> User will be able to return {{java.util.concurrent.Callable<String>}} in
> their actions. Struts when sees such result, runs {{resultCode =
> result.call();}} in it's own managed thread pool but exits from servlet's
> main thread with a null result, i.e. gives back main thread to container and
> leaves response open for concurrent processing. When {{resultCode =
> result.call();}} returned, Struts calls
> {{javax.servlet.AsyncContext.dispatch()}} and {{resumes request processing}}
> within a container's thread servlet to generate the appropriate result for
> user according to {{resultCode}}.
> This adds better support for SLS (Short request processing, Long action
> execution, Short response processing) via Servlet 3's Async API.
> Support of other cases like SSL (e.g. a download server) or LLL(e.g. a video
> converter server) is still open.
